Raphanid -

In the beginner's song "Hey girl, look at me" I'm getting

左看右看 translated as look right, look left. I presume that's a mistake.

and just above,

逗我乐开怀 gets translated as one thing (make me pleased) - again, is this correct? using a
dictionary I get something like "make fun of me as much as you like".

trevelyan -

左看右看 --> left, right... (error in original).

逗 --> means (playfully) tease, amuse, humour as a verb
逗 --> means funny as an adjective (他很逗).

A really literal translation might be: "amuse me so that my bosom fills with happiness". 逗
implies friendly joking and doesn't come with the negative connotations of something like 嘲笑.
So your translation is fine too -- as long as you don't mean anything 不好意思 by "make fun
of".
